Well, in order to take full advantage of the sonic advantages incurred by the extra cost, you'd probably have to place it ENTIRELY behind an acoustically-transparent screen OR have your screen above it, which would make the viewing pretty darn uncomfortable. How much overkill is enough?

The AT screen will be here before the tower.Its not about overkill.Running phantom center now and it actually works pretty good, better than the center I was using.Thinking the deeper bass would be worthwhile.
